Owning a yacht in a Yacht Ownership Program can provide you a window of opportunity. For past Sunsail owner and current Moorings owner, Paul Harris, and like many other Moorings owners, more time on the water at more destinations is essential to getting the most out of a Yacht Ownership Program. Continue reading to get some great advice from an owner who knows a thing or two about owning a yacht through an ownership program.
Where to start?
Whether you raced Lasers as a child or the first yacht you sailed was a 47ft monohull after your retirement, everyone’s love for sailing has to start somewhere. For owner Paul Harris, he has always enjoyed dinghy sailing, but getting into the cruising culture was something that he discovered on Anegada, BVI in 2010. As he explains, “We were chatting with a group of 15 or 20 people and we had discovered that four or five of them were Sunsail owners. They explained a little about the program and when we arrived home we looked into it, and within a few months we were Sunsail owners. We were Sunsail owners until 2015 when we traded our Sunsail 36i in for a Moorings 42.3.”
